This Foldable Walking Pad Is Made for Small Spaces (and Actually Fits Under Your Bed)

When you live in a small space, there are certain things you just get used to. You learn to maximize storage, minimize clutter, and accept that there are some things you don’t have room for. You might think a treadmill is high on that list — but it doesn’t have to be! We found one at QVC that has all the special features of a traditional gym-style treadmill, but with a much smaller footprint.

The Kingsmith MX3 WalkingPad and Foldable Treadmill is designed specifically for small-space living. It has a sleek, durable fold design that won’t take over your home. When you want to use it, pull it out and unfold it. When you’re finished, fold it up and tuck it away. Best of all, right now you can get it for 40% off, plus an additional $20 off with code WELCOME20.

The Kingsmith MX3 WalkingPad is an apartment-friendly treadmill that’s just under 5 feet long. When you’re not using it, it folds in half for easy storage under a bed, under a couch, or in a closet. The walking pad may be small, but it’s still plenty mighty: It can go up to 7.5 miles per hour. And it has features of a regular treadmill, too, like an HD LED display with your time, distance, speed, calories, and steps, plus height-adjustable handrails if you need something to hold on to. The only downside is it doesn’t have the incline function of a gym-style treadmill, but reviewers say its other pros far outweigh that one con. Reviewers also say it’s surprisingly powerful — and surprisingly quiet, which is a must in an apartment building.

Unlike a bulky traditional treadmill, this one earns its square footage. You can use it as a walking pad, under-desk treadmill, or a traditional running treadmill, making it easy to get in your steps or a workout at home without rearranging your entire living room. Whether you’re squeezing in movement between meetings or going for a long indoor walk when it’s too cold to go outside, it fits neatly into your real-life routine.

For apartment dwellers, downsizers, or anyone who wants to move more at home without committing to permanent floor space, the Kingsmith MX3 WalkingPad is one of those rare finds that’s as practical as it is well-designed.
